    Just not overcrowded like Newport Beach I wish it had few fire pits there . Beautiful Sunsets . It's where my fiance took me on our first romantic date.

    There is no Tower 28 at Sunset Beach. This tower, at the end of Warner Ave, is part of Bolsa Chica Beach. Sunset Beach towers go up to 26 at other end of beach. Sunset tower #s correspond to streets.

    Public parking is just off Main. Coin operated meters. Be sure to bring some change or park near pier. I think it was $10 or $15 for the day. Beautiful, long, wide, less crowded beach.

    Free parking with close access to bathrooms and a quick walk to the beach. Definitely a hidden gem.

    Parking is easy on a weekday. The weekends tend to get harder to find parking after 12pm.

    Never crowded... that's because parking, while free, is limited. It's a neighborhood beach, very quiet yet walkable to many eating establishments

    Best beach by far. I love coming here at night, especially when the sky is clear. Kick back, relax and look for shooting stars. :]
